Stokes to skip England’s T20 series vs India, returns for ODIs

By: ReutersLondon | July 1, 2022 5:33:42 pm

England test captain Ben Stokes will skip the Twenty20 series against India but will return for the one-day internationals, England’s cricket board (ECB) said on Friday. Jos Buttler takes over as white-ball captain after Eoin Morgan announced his retirement this week.

England host India in three T20s from July 7 followed by three ODIs. The teams are currently playing the fifth test of the series – which India lead 2-1 — that was postponed last year due to COVID-19 cases in the tourists’ camp. England spinner Adil Rashid will not be involved in the one-day series after he was given permission by the ECB to miss them to make the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca.

ENGLAND T20 SQUAD: Jos Buttler (captain), Moeen Ali, Harry Brook, Sam Curran, Richard Gleeson, Chris Jordan, Liam Livingstone, Dawid Malan, Tymal Mills, Matthew Parkinson, Jason Roy, Phil Salt, Reece Topley, David Willey
